"SANE WORKPLACE PRINCIPLE #4
Hours for the real world bring real results to work, home, and community.
We have to start making work schedules accommodate the obligations of real lives. Parents with full-time careers 'can't have any sort of family life,' says Penn State Economist Robert Drago, a work-family expert. The solution lies in more flexible hours through alternative schedules such as telecommuting. We already have the tools to move in this direction. Technology makes it possible to do more in less time and work from any number of locations besides under somebody's nose. Managers have to give up control over employee time, because in the knowledge economy, it's no longer relevant. You can't watch what's going on in someone's skull. In return, sane managers get higher productivity, retention, morale, efficiency, and cost savings." (p 298)
